  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: Serves 4

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 medium-sized Russet potatoes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp coarse sea salt
  • ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper
  • Your favorite toppings (e.g., sour cream, chives, shredded cheese, bacon bits)

Instructions

  1. Thoroughly wash the Russet potatoes and pat them dry.
  2. Poke holes all over each potato using a fork to allow steam to escape.
  3. Drizzle olive oil over the potatoes and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper, rubbing it in for even coverage.
  4. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place the seasoned potatoes in the basket without overcrowding.
  5. Cook for 35-40 minutes until tender inside and crispy outside. Check doneness by inserting a fork; it should slide in easily.
  6. Remove from the air fryer, let cool slightly, slice open, and add your favorite toppings before serving.
